Forex Robots




The idea of using forex robots to make you money while you sleep--or work your day job, or sit in a beach chair drinking pina coladas, or whatever--is compelling. Computer programs such as the Forex Megadroid, Forex Ambush, and Forex Automoney have shown great promise.

However, the idea of forex robots is often more compelling than the reality. Many forex robots are mediocre at best. Other automated currency trading programs work for one currency pair, or one trading style, or one market condition only (trending vs. range-bound market).

Due to the varying qualities and purposes of different forex robot programs, it is vital to read forex robot reviews before investing money in a forex robot.

Robotic Intelligence Ain't All It's Cracked Up to Be?
Similar to what happens with forex signals, some currency traders tend to put too much faith in the smarts of a forex robot. In reality, many forex robots are not all that intelligent. Indeed, some forex robots are simpletons. Simple can be good, but isn't always.

Many forex robots fail to account for what psychologists call "emotional intelligence." Any successful FX trader can tell you that the currency markets are extremely influenced by emotions--namely, fear and greed. An average forex robot may underestimate these factors.

The classic example of this shortcoming occurs when volatility in a chosen currency pair increases dramatically. For instance, if a terrible U.S. jobs report comes out, way worse than expected, and the market starts going crazy, flying this way and that.
The average forex robot will take one of two actions at this time: either cash out your position at the market price, which is almost sure to be a disadvantageous one, or else let your money take one frightfully bumpy ride because this crazy f&*#ing robot is trading without a stop loss.

A margin call can happen quickly if you're not careful.

Extreme TMA System

The market, like a pendulum, is a never ending sequence of extremes. It forever tries to reach the mean but never succeeds, constantly overshooting it´s mark, reversing and trying it again but always failing to reach balance. This system attempts to capture those extremes. It is a compendium of my understanding of the market, brought to it´s simplest expression. The principles are not complicated. The first indicator, the TMA shows us the average of the path that the price action in the market is following. As such, it is a backward looking indicator and attempts to determine the future from the recent history. It corrects itself by repainting itself. It has two outer bands that show us the outer boundaries of price movement that we are searching for. Our second indicator, the TMA Slope indicator will show us the relative change in the slope of TMA as compared to previous candles. It determines in which direction a trade must be placed and also shows divergences to price. For examp...

Tom demark Trendlines

anyone here used TD T'L's? they are over 70% (closer to 90) accurate with breakouts. using TD TL can profit on all timeframes down to 15M. scalpers and long term traders can profit from this. Also, u might not wait on a break of a TL but can trade its bounce i.e: the price is bouncing inside a triangle drawn by TD TL. here are the breakout qualifiers: Upside breakout qualifiers Qualifier 1: The price bar prior to an upside breakout must be a down close. Qualifier 2: The current price bar’s open must be greater than both the current TD Supply Line and the previous price bar’s close and must then trade at least one tick higher. Qualifier 3: The previous price bar’s close plus the previous bar’s “buying pressure” must be below the current price bar’s TD Supply Line price level. Qualifier 4: The current price bar’s open must be above both the previous two price bars’ closes, and the current price bar’s TD Supply Line must be above the previous price bar’s high. Downside breakout qu...
